    Saving sessions manually - Missing menu item / icon / button?

    Guys,

    How do i save a session manually so that it can be restored when i switch on my laptop again. from previous posts here , i understand this was a bug (missing feature ) and that it is available under kickoff -> leave.

    I cant find it in mine. is there anything i have to install?

    To enable: System Settings > Advanced > Session Manager : Restore manually saved session (+Apply)

    May take some time (> [Bug 182662] No mechanism for user to save KDE session (KDE4.2))
    ...When I just tried setting it, it took a little while for the change to
    be registered by Kickoff, but the option did appear....
    After a short wait: K > Leave > Save Session



    Are you using the "Kickoff Menu Style" or the "the Classical Menu Style" ?

    The Classical Menu Style don't have the "Save Session" option.

      ... and from the command line:

      Save Session:
      Code:
      qdbus org.kde.ksmserver /KSMServer org.kde.KSMServerInterface.saveCurrentSession
      Save Session As:
      Code:
      qdbus org.kde.ksmserver /KSMServer org.kde.KSMServerInterface.saveCurrentSessionAs Name_Here
      Settings will be saved at:
      ~/.kde/share/config/ksmserverrc
